Plans

Emilia's P.O.V

I couldn't stop thinking about this stranger who I just met. Would I go back to see him?

No! I didn't even know how I got there, and there is a 0.5 chance that if I wander around again, I'll find my way back there .

Also, it's not like he'll just remain at that exact spot waiting for me to come. That was totally absurd..

I was back to the house again. I mean, I was wandering aimlessly, and I found the familiar setting of alpha D's town, so I headed back..

"Where have you been all day?". There it was. The questions, from none other than my beloved sister, Dawn. Great!

"I'm exhausted. Can we not talk about this?". I asked, as I tried to walk past her, but she shoved me backwards, and I stared at her lazily..

"Young lady, I do not like the attitude you're giving to me at all. Infact, saying I hate it is an understatement. As far as we're concerned, I make the rules, and you follow, and you're accountable to me, as I'm your elder sister, got that?". I gave no response.

"Got. That?". She asked again, and I sighed.

"Can I go in?". I asked.

"No". She replied firmly. "Since you want to prove stubborn to me, you won't be entering this house for tonight. Go back to wherever you're coming from". She slammed the door at my face, and I could hear Cassie begging her to open the door..

I could also hear her firm voice telling Cassie that she won't do no such thing, and that Cassie was forbidden to open the door for me until the next morning.

My stomach grumbled, but I held it in as I moved away from the house. I didn't even know where to head now, and who's house I'll be crashing in.

It disgusted me to the core that I'll probably have to ask one of my friends if I could crash with them. I also considered sleeping in the woods, but apart from the bugs, crickets noises, and mosquitoes, it was dangerous to sleep out there.

The moon was up, but it wasn't a full moon. Maybe it was sad, just like me..

Okay, tell me. If you were in my shoes, wouldn't you have reacted the same way. Judging from all that has happened, wouldn't you have felt bad ?

So it was natural for me to feel this way right? No wonder my inner self couldn't sync with it when Dawn said we were moving.

Maybe I would taken the offer of Ria, and just stayed with her family. Nah, I would not have been comfortable. I would have felt like a burden..

But what about Stephen's home? Ugh, there was no need thinking about all of these. I'm here now, and there was no going back right? And even if I could go back, I wouldn't go alone. I'd take Cassie with me..

I'll just have to stay here for the time being, until I'm sure I can handle myself, and I'll run away with Cassie.

Making a plan was one thing, but startng it was another.. I've just made a plan, but how do I start?

Money! I need money, and yo get money, I'll need a stable job.

That's right, that's where to start.

With a satisfactory grin, I sat down behind someone's hut, and laid down to rest.

There was a mat on the floor, as if specially kept for me. Not like all the houses doesn't look the same, but this one feels familiar. Anyways, that would be a thought for the morning. I counted sheep, until I slowly drifted to sleep.

"Mommy, I can't transform". The little girl cried as she stomped about.

"Calm down baby. Try again, and remember to stay focused". Her mother advised.

"Okay". She murmured, wiped her tears and sought to try again. As she put all her energy and focus in trying to transform, her lungs tightened, and blood shot out of her mouth.

"Oh my goodness". Her mother exclaimed.. "My dear, what is this?".

"I..do-n't —".

"Sssh, stop trying to speak. It's alright, come here". The woman lifted her child, and placed her on her thighs. She wiped the blood stains on her mouth. "Are you alright?". She asked worriedly.

The little nodded although deep down she wasn't find. Her heart was beating slowly, making it difficult for her breathe. Her chest had tightened, and her eyes were teary from the pain.

I woke up. This wasn't my worse nightmare so far, but it was still quite unsettling. These dreams, what do they mean? Why can I only see the little girl's face, but not the mother? Why couldn't the little girl transform, and why was she suddenly spitting out blood? I needed to get to the bottom of this..No matter how I think about this, it is like a scrambled puzzle set for me to solve, and I'm sure gonna solve it, but how?
